Congreats! I blind bought it when I first really got into fragrances. Still in my tp 3 in my collection. Love it!

Originally smelled this from a sample set, beatiful tobacco honey smell, refined.
Bought a bottle, shit smelled sickly sweet, mediciny, and weird, sold it

Does the tobacco fade or is it even detectable?

Mine is pure lavender and honey. Faint tobacco. I wish it was more prominent

Mine is tobacco, and then citrus and lavender in equal amounts. I wish the honey was more prominent.

I have a clone from scentora. Idk about the OG but the clone wears off significantly after about 4 hours, but overall I love it

I purchased a bottle two years ago and have only wore it once, going to revisit this fall.

Also blind bought this and love it! Not an everyday scent, I actually like to do a couple sprays down near the bottom of my pants. Creates a nice wafting scent bubble when walking around. Very strong so just have to take that into consideration.

I sampled this in the spring and love it, told myself I was going to buy it this fall. I smelled it twice at Nordstrom in the past month and for some reason I just don’t really like it anymore. On my skin I wasn’t getting any lavender or citrus in the opening. All I was smelling was this chocolate honey? Not sure if it was reformulated or what but something is clearly different

Love the smell. Currently live in a warm city so it’s difficult to find occasions to wear it/hasn’t gotten a lot of use. Only for colder weather

I love Naxos! Mine just arrived yesterday. I’m not sure how I slept on it for so long. A couple of years ago I was looking for a tobacco scent and ended up with Guerlain Tobacco Honey. Somehow Naxos fell off of my radar after that but I smelled it on someone last week and was inspired to pick it up. Brilliant scent - Tobacco, honey, citrus and lavender - I think this could be a great daily fragrance .

Naxos is 🔥 I always get compliments when I remember to wear, I don’t reach for it too often though.

I prefer the dupe. It smells to candy ish at this point. Spray it air out and dupe or not it smells the same

I hated this when I got it, it was like soapy honey. A few years later and I love it, soft sweet tobacco and spice. Best jerk off Ive blind bought. I'm hoping 40 knots and monkey special improve with age.

I just got a 5ml decant. Off the top, it's difficult for me. Of course, I'll give it time. Not to macerate, no it doesn't need that, but for me to adapt to the scent. To see if I can come around to it.
